Tennet Sionaro

Dr. Tennet Sionaro was a Corellian archaeologist with the Archaeology Department of Coronet University who lived during the Galactic Civil War.^[1]

In 1 ABY,^[2] Dr. Sionaro and a field team were busy excavating in a remote area of Corellia. They were searching for a supposed network of Selonian Tunnels that apparently predated the Old Republic. Although Sionaro's colleagues were skeptical, their research seemed to show promise. But then a herd of local animals started to endanger the team's encampment, which upset the students and threatened to drastically set back the doctor's schedule. After an appeal to the Empire for help was declined, Coronet University granted additional stipend to pay a well-armed individual for eliminating the creatures. Sionaro used the money to hire a spacer who hunted and killed the creatures and so permitted the scientist to continue his or her research.^[1]

Behind the scenes

Dr. Sionaro is the creator of a mission in Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided called "Coronet Archaeology Site Menaced" that was available on Mission Terminals on Corellia.^[1]

Notes and references

↑ ^1.0 ^1.1 ^1.2 Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided — Terminal Mission: "Coronet Archaeology Site Menaced"
↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
